Important

This is NOT a role where you will be asked to trade personal funds or manage money.

The initial focus will be on:

Research ? Backtesting ? Paper Trading ? Testing ? Automation

Paid Trial Task

As part of the trial, you will be asked to research 3 simple crypto trading strategies and create a clear comparison showing:

• Win rate
• Maximum drawdown

If you have Python skills, you may also be asked to create or modify a simple backtest.

Please include examples of previous trading research, Python projects, data analysis, or automation work if available.

This can become a long-term position for the right person.
